Despite what was said at the end of this chapter, the way I see it, there are actually three candidates for vocal. The obvious choice is of course Azusa, but should anything happen to her e.g. catching a cold with sore throat, someone had to pick up from her be it Ui or Nao. Personally, I was hoping to hear Nao's singing voice. Innocent until proven guilty so to say.

EDIT: Ah, now I see, the song actually reflects how Nao sees Azusa. I guess Azusa will have to sing this one then.

oh bother.. and here I figured it would be a joint training camp at the villa this year.... oh well.... The older group is probably on the yacht this year

A wild guess, but maybe Mugi invited the entire University Light Music Club to her grand villa for summer training a day after the High Schoolers would have left...without her knowing that Sumire used the villa.

But soon after their arrival, the four find some bum named Okuda-san left behind apparently stuck in a closet. Having never met each other before, all ten bands proceeded to chase Okuda off Love Hina style until Okuda recognizes 'Hirasawa-senpai'.

Yui then misinterpret things that Okuda-san was a big fan of HTT and that they made it to the big leagues, while Mio fears that she is a stalker like Megumin-senpai.

Dang it Avalon, you c(XD LOL)-block Shirou and Reinforce, but don't protect his mind in other ways? What is wrong, you woman?
Friendship, be made! Magical power, gather! Starlight Breaker.... this world!

If Azunyan would just switch to metal or punk rock, none of this would be an issue

I know some forms of metal can hardly be qualified as being 'singing', but for the most parts, you still need to know how to control your voice. The growing or screeching you hear in death and/or black metal definitely will take its toll on your vocal chords if you don't know how to do it properly.

Even if Azusa did, she would still need training from Sawako. She'd need to increase her intimidation value as last time we saw her in Death Devil garb she ws cute and not intimidating...though she was serious while using the Maracas.

i'm quite disappointed that azusa is now the vocalist. i prefer ui. but then again, she could do the back-up, just like mio-chuan. <<33 and then UiAzu will finally shine. XDD yes, yes kakifly..they can make beautiful music together. <<3

I'm guessing Azusa will now truly know what Yui went through when she was up for vocal training. Of course, this now means she can no longer complain about Yui's singing capabilities, because hers aren't any better right now, either.

Still, I too don't really like seeing them force the job down Azusa's throat, though OTOH, it shows that she's still easily manipulated as well. I can understand that Sumire ad Nao can't do it, and I'm sure Jun is as lazy as she claims to be, but Ui's excuse seems a bit weak to me. She's already shown to be capable of learning everything on the spot, so I don't see why it suddenly bothers her now.

Anyway, with the formalities finally out of the way (took them long enough), it's time to see if the new band can top the old band. I like how Nao decides to handle the writing process (and apparently makes suitable lyrics at that).

As some of you may already know, this issue of Mangatime Kirara (2012 March) is the 100th issue. Aside from the usual 8 pages, Kakifly drew an extra 2 pages of omake comic to commemorate this event. So expect 10 pages to read this month.

Spoiler for University Chapter 10:

- No color pages, though there is a nice shot of Mio and her bass.

- The girls are planning a vacation here as well! But with university comes other people, and with other people with their other plans comes the harsh realities...

- Ritsu had a Azusa like moment. We've finally found someone less responsible than Ritsu in university.

- Akira may act all bad, but in the end she wears a Harumi Nation T-shirt as well.

- I sometimes forget that HTT and Onnagumi (and the club presidents) aren't the only girls in the light music club.

- Sachi continues to worry about her height. I really hope she becomes more than just this one joke. She is by far the least developed character in the manga. So far its almost as if she's just a gag character.

- Mugi setting up her keyboard in that one panel was very cute.

- I know now what the high-school training camp chapter lacked: a hot springs scene. Full frontal nudity.

- Plenty of music stuff this time around. Yui may "suck" at music, but it seems with regard to performance, she's at the level where she can compete with Akira. I for some reason keep underestimating Yui's skill. I remembered a tidbit that during performance (and only during performance) she can surpass Azusa in guitar. Which leads to an interesting question: Yui is a wildcard, and can potentially be better than Akira and Azusa in performance. So who is the better guitarist between Azusa and Akira?

- Seriously, the way the high-school girls go about their trip the previous chapter and the way these girls do this chapter is quite different. Its like you can feel how "advanced" the university girls are.

Spoiler for 100th Issue Commemoration Chapter:

- Best cover page ever.

- Yui is very cute this chapter.

- Not going to spoil for this. Seriously, just read it when it comes out. Best chapter ever.
